In top of /templates/TEMPLATENAME/index.php add these lines:

<?php $isHomePage = (JSite::getMenu()->getActive()->id == JSite::getMenu()->getDefault()->id); ?>

And then find rows, where module positions are included and modify them. From:

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="user1" />

, to:

<?php if ($isHomePage) { ?>
    <jdoc:include type="modules" name="user1" />
<?php } ?>

    Sure. It's all about menu items from 'menu manager'. Method getDefault() returns menu item, that choosen as default for site (as home page). Method getActive() returns menu item, that is active on current page. Read more: [getActive()](http://api.joomla.org/1.5/Joomla-Framework/Application/JMenu.html#getActive) and [getDefault()](http://api.joomla.org/1.5/Joomla-Framework/Application/JMenu.html#getDefault) from Joomla 1.5 Api Documentation – Stanislav Gamayunov Apr 21 '12 at 10:22
